Costa Mesa, CA DimeStories

In April I was able to attend the open mic in Costa Mesa which takes place at LCA Wine. If you’re not familiar with LCA, check it out. It’s a lovely space with lots of great wine and a knowledgeable staff to help you navigate… and owner Nancy Milby has been most gracious in sharing her space with DimeStories.

San Diego, CA DimeStories

As you may or may not know the San Diego chapter leader, Joanna Gorman has stepped down. DimeStories executive director (that’s me) Jennifer Simpson was able to host in April, flying in for the event from Albuquerque… Now the chapter is putting together a committee to keep the chapter going. In addition to hosting duties at the regular open mic, there are needs for promotional assistance –getting the word out consistently to local arts calendars, sending out the monthly newsletter, listing events on FaceBook and MeetUP, and updating this website. Anyway, if you’re interested contact me through this website.

As of now (April 20, 2016) the SanDiego open mic series on a short break… stay tuned.
